KidCare
KidCare is a state program that offers health care coverage to children, pregnant
women and their babies or helps in paying premiums of employer or private health
insurance plans.
Who is eligible for KidCare?
Children through age 18 who are Illinois
residents, U.S. citizens or qualified legal immigrants, and meet income requirements
are eligible. Pregnant women of any age who are Illinois residents and meet the
income requirements are eligible.
What are the income requirements?
Income requirements
vary by KidCare Plan and are based on family size. Payments made for childcare expenses
or child or spousal support will be subtracted from income. Check your family income
